    Drugs are expensive. 

    But you know what almost never happens in private schools?  Shootings.  I don't have a clue why, but 96% of school shootings in this country are in public schools.  I'd rather my kid get high than dead, all else being equal.

    No doubt. I was just responding to the pearl clutching about kids with gummies at O. Henry and there being a fight in the hallways.

    Welp so O.Henry had 6 kids take drug laced gummies today bringing a rash of cops to school, a fight in the hallway and now a tiktok thread about shooting the school up.

    I am not sure I will be keeping my 6th grader there for the long haul. My older son made it all the way through there and it seems like post Covid the place has just come off the fucking rails.

    My friends that went private schools took waaaaay more drugs than I ever saw in public schools.

    The state will sell Hobby building soon. So sometimes it happens.  Though it hasn't happened yet.

    It blows my mind that they haven't sold it yet. I hear it's a maintenance nightmare and crumbling in places. It's also sitting on an extremely valuable full city block. Sell it, build the replacement outside of downtown and put the excess cash to work.

    Afford has nothing to do with it. If you think I'm going somewhere that charges $19 per for mashed potatoes, you are out of your mind.

    There’s a $1,000 steak on that check and the mashed potatoes are the deal breaker? Anyone that walks into one of that douchebag’s restaurants deserves to be fleeced. In a perverse way, I admire that attention horse for separating so many morons from their money.

    Nothing better than the feeling when you get off the plane at SBH.  You take Winair or St. Barth Commuter?  Or did you splurge and do the Pilatus with Tradewinds from Puerto Rico?

    Not big on context clues? Captain is wearing a Tradewind lanyard and the plane’s N number is N224TW which is printed on two separate plaques directly below the word Pilatus.

    Its because the cheap ass fucks that don't want to spend  quarter on a bag take them out to their car and throw them in the trunk.

    I was wondering why that wasn’t a problem at my local HEB in Houston. Makes perfect sense now. Have they just quit replacing them to save on the cost of all the shrinkage?

    Anyone who believes that Riley and USC started talking on Sunday and hammered out a 9-figure deal in a few hours must be completely ignorant of the words "lawyer" and "Board of Regents."

     

    That's why coaches have agents.

    I don't care one bit about this, that's how allsome being in the SEC will be. Best thing the Texas athletic department has done since hiring Darrell Royal.

    So in your world being totally irrelevant in football is cool because SECSECSEC? Okay.

    I'm also still not sold on the idea of super conferences.  I'd be more than happy if someone could wave a magic wand and conferences go back to the original 1998 BCS conference affiliations. 

    Same. I don't like the idea of super conferences from the perspective of being in a conference with schools that you will meet on the field once a decade or so.

  10. GP is an incredibly stubborn and inflexible person that can't stand even the smallest amount of scrutiny. That was eventually downfall at a school where he has a statue on campus. He's not going to go work for anyone unless he has TOTAL control. So unless Sark cedes all control of the defensive side of the ball and they pay him $3mm year or more, he's not going anywhere. GP isn't convincing Kelsey to leave FW unless it's for a head coaching job.

    A significant improvement over Gary the last several years. He’ll hit DFW recruiting hard, and reinvigorate the program. And GP will come here next year. 

    GP isn't leaving Ft. Worth to be a coordinator so unless CDC fires Sark, don't hold your breath.

    Trade in a multiple national COY winner who literally resurrected the program for a career .500 coach. Bold move, Cotton. Let’s see how it works out for them. 

    Using that line of reasoning, Mack Brown would still be the coach at Texas.
